introduction: currently, volunteer forces are among the main members of the healthcare service body, particularly in the treatment sector, and play a key role in healthcare and treatment services. since efficient human resources are the greatest and most important assets of all organizations, the organization constantly works to train, retain, and get maximum benefit of these valuable assets. t...

background: stroke is a major cause of death and disability in the world and these complications can be decreased by competent emergency care. emergency medical service (ems) transfer half of the stroke patients to hospitals. this study aimed to determine diagnosis of status and transfer time of stroke patients by ems to a main hospital (valiasr) in arak city. materials and methods: this study ...

in this paper the numerical analysis of flow and time dependent heat transfer of micro-tube conveying nanofluid in laminar flow is investigated. in this study, convection heat transfer of nanofluid and base fluid and transient analysis for time-varying heat flux for time step of 0.0001 second are elucidated. it is observed that the pumping power of nanofluid flowing and the maximum temperature ...

Public transportation has been one of the most important research fields in the two last decades. The purpose of this paper is to create a schedule for public transport fleets such as buses and metro trains with the goal of minimizing the total transfer waiting time. We extend previous research works in the field of transit schedule with considering headways of each route as decision variables....

In this article, a special type of orthogonalization is obtained to construct a multiple input transfer function model. By using this technique, construction of a transfer function model is divided to sequential construction of transfer function models with less input time series. Furthermore, based on real and simulated time series we provide an instruction to adequately perform the stages of ...

background : near infrared spectroscopy imaging is one of the new techniques used for investigating structural and functionality of different body tissues. this is done by injecting light into the medium and measuring the photon intensity at the surface of the tissue. method : in this paper the different medical applications, various imaging and simulation techniques of nirs imaging is describe...

in this paper a new method is introduced and investigated for removing the destabilizing effects of time-delay parameter in control loops. the concept of the method is taken from the knowledge concerning the dynamic behaviour of irrational transfer functions (ir-tf), which is discussed and investigated elswhere in frequency response domain and is explained briefly here. ir-tfs, which are well c...

a down-flow hanging sponge (dhs) reactor has been developed for sewage treatment, mainly in developing countries. this novel reactor employs polyurethane sponge material as a support medium, which promises a proliferation of a large amount of biomass, offering excellent pollutant removal capability. three types of sponge medium were evaluated with respect to water distribution and oxygen mass t...
